What are two basic perspectives that functioned as the basis of the nineteenth-century social reform movement in India?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
It is not that attempts
were not made to fight social discrimination in pre-colonial India. They were
central to Buddhism. They were central to Bhakti and Sufi movements. What
marked these 19th century social reform attempts was the modern context and
mix of ideas. It was a creative combination of modern ideas of western liberalism
and a new look on traditional literature.
